GreatSchools Rating
The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.

Callaway is a good school to attend. Everyone is nice and welcoming, there's lots of opportunities to express yourself and open doors for your future. Though, there may be times where things are so fun and things get a little strict but overall the school is well put together.
